Matt Shichtman

Matt Shichtman joined leading management/production company The Gotham Group in 2010 as an assistant, before rising through the ranks to become Manager and eventually Partner. Working across the company’s live action and animation departments, with a particular passion for the latter, Shichtman represents top visual story tellers like David F. Sandberg (Lights Out, Annabelle 2, Shazam), Pat Casey & Josh Miller (Sonic, Sonic 2, Violent Night), Chris Winterbauer (Wyrm, Moonshot), Olan Rogers (Final Space), Mike Rubiner (The Loud House), Latoya Raveneau (Rise Up; Sing Out), Tony Stacchi (The Boxtrolls), Rosa Tran (Anomalisa), Mark Satterthwaite & Pedro Eboli (Cupcake & Dino, Gary & His Demons), Simon Smith (Penguins of Madagascar, Bee Movie), and Bernard Derriman (The Bob’s Burgers Movie), among many others. He has worked with many of his clients from the earliest days of their careers, and holds a strong belief in getting creative to build pathways to opportunity for unique and underrepresented voices. With this goal in mind, Shichtman launched The Gotham Group’s Emerging Technologies department in early 2022 to additionally leverage the power of Web3, and blockchain technology more broadly, to create new opportunities for clients to retain ownership and control as they build and monetize projects.
